duplicating the door & ignition keys

Is it possible for the corner store people to make you a duplicate key
for the ignition/door key for an older model benz? 1987 260E to be
exact. How much do the dealers usually charge if you have to go there

There are non-dealership locksmiths that can duplicate the key from an
original, however the blanks they use tend to be of a softer alloy and wear
quickly in the tumbler mechanism.
Keys cut by MBUSA are available from the Baltimore, MD and TX facilities,
and the price varies by dealership, some charging as much as $50 for a new,
pre alarm, key.
